Processor question


Hello all,
    I am considering either a McIntosh MX 123 or an Audio Control Maestro X9. Has anyone heard these processors? Also, do you have a preference of one or the other in a system used for both music and movies?
     Thanks,
           Steven

i have a mcintosh mx132 and mcintosh mc602 as a stereo setup! i have it mated to 4 bose 901 seies 2 speakers. when i watch a movie and turn up the volume it sounds great to me!!!
I think folks like me look  to help with the situations greatest opportunity. Our experience immediately identifies the pitfalls of stereo audio in a home theater situation. So we try and be helpful. If separate systems cannot be done, then I can’t help with the question.
ghdprentice.... I asked for input on two processors, not on whether I should have separate rooms for stereo and home theater. My experience immediately identifies the pitfalls of answering a question that was not asked. Thank you for trying to be helpful though. I do appreciate it.

If you choose McIntosh MX 123  processor,
maybe you should also choose ´´ lively speakers ´´ like Monitor Audio 
Silver serie.
As @auxinput mentionned ,´´ it might be a just a little bit warmer sounding  ´´ .
The speakers selection may be important 
Moag,

Let me a little more clear on why I commented on separating systems instead of your component choice. You seem annoyed. I do not have an agenda. Seeing someone ask a question that would have a relative minor influence on their desired outcome and realizing another variable would have much much larger impact, making the comment seems the right thing to do. I read posts to see if there is somewhere I can add value. Not annoy people. I personally would rather create my audio system in a large walk in closet rather than combine them. I have learned so much about acoustics over the years. It can be done well, but requires incredible skill and dedication.
